Define "less safe" when it comes to riding hiker biker trails rather than riding in high speed traffic. Personally I guess I would rather be run off a trail and dump my bike in the grass than I would want to be run over by a 4000 pound car doing 45, whos idiot driver "didnt see the bike" because the idiot was texting on his smart phone.

Apparently you miss my point that slowing down heavy traffic roads during rush hour just because a cyclist has the right to be there does nothing to improve car/cyclist relations. Plainly put I would rather ride the trail even if it slows me down some.
